Halloween costumes and supplies at Oriental Trading
Halloween is just around the corner, and much like every year, I am pretty excited. The past two years I have made our own costumes (two years ago I was a flamingo and my husband was a Flamingo Trainer. Last year we were Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers). This year, however, we have decided to wear costumes from Oriental Trading. After all, the Halloween costumes and supplies at Oriental Trading are pretty awesome. I ordered one for my husband and one for myself and they are PERFECT {more on that below}.
Choices, choices choices!
Oriental Trading has SO many choices when it comes to costumes (well when it comes to anything they carry really!), and they definitely have something for everyone from toddler to adult. It was really hard to make a decision. I considered several different Halloween costumes – they have superhero costumes, classic costumes, fairytale costumes, historical costumes and several other categories. Some are hilarious – like the Austin Powers costume and the peanut butter and jelly sandwich costume. Oriental Trading also has plenty of accessories to finish the look of your costume.
Since my husband was a police officer/captain before he retired, we thought it would be funny to have him be a prisoner, and I would be the cop! After perusing the Oriental Trading website, for awhile, I finally made some choices that I am quite happy with.
My husband has always been on the right side of the law, so I thought it would be fun to have him be the bad guy and I would be the police officer.
This is the Women’s Late Night Patrol costume that I chose for myself. I was happy to see that all of the “parts and pieces” were included, and that the quality was good. Previously when I purchased costumes (not at Oriental Trading), they often fell apart before the big day.
For my husband, we settled on the prisoner costume.
I will update this post after Halloween, so you can see what we looked like, all decked out with our new Halloween costumes.
FINAL THOUGHTS
There is still plenty of time to to find the perfect Halloween costume for yourself and your family. Oriental Trading has some impressive pricing, as well as a great selection for kids and adults.

I am going to have to check out Oriental Trading and see what they have for costumes. They have tons of Halloween decorations that I love!
I haven’t dressed up for a decade but I’m in the mood this year for something different.
I’ve never gotten anything from Oriental Trading before, but it looks like they have a lot of neat stuff!
